Kind: captions Language: en I'm a quantum physicist and we quantum physicists don't believe that the Big Bang happened once that would violate the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and that means that there could be multiple bangs happening all the time even as we speak today universes are being created and that fits the data the inflationary universe is a quantum theory so there's a certain finite probability that universes are being created all the time and for me this is actually rather aesthetically pleasing because you know I was raised as a presbyterian but my parents were Buddhists and there's two diametrically opposed ideas about the universe in Buddhism there's only nirvana there's no beginning there's no end there's only timelessness but in Christianity there is the instant when God said let there be light in other words an instant of creation so I've had these two mutually exclusive ideas in my head and I now realize that it's possible to Mel them into a single theory either the universe had a beginning or it didn't right wrong you see our universe had a beginning our universe had an instant where somebody might have said let there be light but their other bubble universe is out there in a bubble bath of universes and that means that these universes are expanding into a dimension beyond our three-dimensional comprehension in other words is hyperspace in other words 11 dimensional hyperspace so Nirvana would be this timeless 11 dimensional hyperspace where big bangs are happening all the time so we can now combine two mutually exclusive theories of creation and Stephen Hawking for example even in his last book even said that this is an argument against the existence of God he said there is no God because there was not enough time for God to create the universe because the big bang happened in an instant of time therefore there was no time available for him to create the universe but he see the multiverse idea means that there was a time before time and there multiple times each bubble has its own time and so it means that there could actually be a universe before the beginning of our universe so if you think of a bubble bath when two bubbles collide or when two bubbles fission to create a baby bubble that's called the Big Bang so the Big Bang is nothing but the collision of universes or the budding of universes you
